This post is in progress.
During the Summer of 2016 Jodie and I took a 380+ mile bike ride from Washington DC to Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. For 95% of the trip we traveled along the C&O Canal Tow Path and then the Great Allegheny Passage.
The videos are just sort of random videos of the trip. I was never intending for them to be viewed by anyone except for us.
